Inspired by E.E. Cummings’s “somewhere i have never travelled, gladly beyond”
you said you wanted blood well i’m bleeding out for you
the way the light effortlessly blends into dark
slowly, passionately leaving all that it has behind
as the day begins to fade into night,
as the ink seeps into this page
the feeling of your touch unravels the clutter in my mind
goosebumps follow the trace of your fingertips
i find myself lost in the galaxies of your eyes
melting at the sound of sweet nectar
your voice clouding up my mind
your hands intertwine with mine
the only things that can warm my cold heart
breaking apart my ribs exposing the flowers
that have been dying inside, giving them life—
growing for you
(i’m giving it all to you—
all of my light, my dark, all of me
truly and completely yours alone
i will always love you endlessly)
your voice like rain washes me anew
